Support openwrt-23.05 on armv7l #2

Closed nicerloop closed 2 months ago

nicerloop commented 3 months ago

Hi,

I have a Netgear Orbi RBK50 pair, and I would like to use OpenWrt with Pi-Hole. These devices use an armv7l processor, and openwrt-23.05 can be installed on them. https://openwrt.org/toh/hwdata/netgear/netgear_rbr50

I just tried to install your Pi-Hole packages and encountered these:

I tired to work around these and see how far I can get:

and finally I have been blocked: Package pi-hole version 2024.08.06-134720-c6ff1d52 has no valid architecture, ignoring.

Can you help me contribute back the needed changes ?

What prevents you from installing Entware on your device? With this package I'm targeting Entware, not OpenWRT.

Hi,

I am just discovering the whole Entware/OpenWrt landscape... I just added Entware sources to opkg to provide the missing packages. src/gz entware https://bin.entware.net/armv7sf-k3.2

Still the install does not go further with many 'xxx has no valid architecture, ignoring.' messages, then fails: Unknown package 'pi-hole'.

I finally found https://github.com/Entware/Entware/wiki/Alternative-install-vs-standard, which installation type do you recommend for Pi-Hole?

Entware != OpenWRT The package repositories are not compatible

which installation type do you recommend for Pi-Hole?

The standard one, alternative is only for specific scenarios

Thank you for you help and the good work you do and share. I will continue on discovering Entware and OpenWRT.
